Yea it does get confusing with everyone being an "expert" at growing and everybody's giving different advice and theories...We all grow differently so it's just trial and error at the end of the day. Personally, I do the wet/dry cycle because I feel it's always better to underwater than...

...yep Rapid rooters is the way to go.

In addition to what Bdoggg said and if you still have issues, maybe try mixing in some more perlite...Since you started in the 2 liter (I usually start with 16oz party cups for seedlings with Hempy), I feel it will help distribute the saturated moisture from the seedling's root system in the...

I do 3.5 gallon Hempy buckets as well and I drill the holes at 2" or slightlyyy below since i did 2" on 5-gal buckets before. Good luck!

Been awhile since I updated, I hope everyone had a great Christmas and New Year holiday. Day 94 (Day 38 of FLOWER) Update 01/24/2016: Had some changes to the original plan...My buddy was not able to get a bigger tent and lights so I'm going to be flowering with only 600 watts (~300 true...

Day 57 (Day 1 of FLOWER!) Update 12/18/2015 Started 12/12, these are some pics right before the switch...Some quick growth in my opinion just within these past few days. They're already touching the walls. I know the plants may double or even triple in size. I'm not sure if this will be a...

Thanks for noticing! Yep it's an automatic extinguisher (shoots when temps reach 150 degrees F I believe)...I feel it's more than worth the investment and all growers should have one..could be used in a laundry room or wherever when not used for growing. The brand I got is The Watch Dog.

Thank you!

Hello, fellow Hempers!... Kind of new as far as posting but here's a link to my LED hempy grow if anyone's interested... https://www.rollitup.org/t/led-hempy-bucket-grow-the-sauce-green-ribbon-x-gorilla-glue.888547/ Pic from a few days ago...

Thank you! Good luck, it's pretty easy though! Although next time I'm going to try a mix of perlite and coco(which I've never used before).

Sorry I know it's been awhile. Last month we had major yellowing/drying issues with the plants, and I was actually about to trash this grow...luckily my partner continued to try and save them and now they are back on track despite being set back a few weeks due to all the plant-stress. Day 24...

Those are some bigass colas.

She looks like she'll clear an oz to me, it's pretty bushy!

Plants lookin great!

I looked up Hollandstar and it does indeed look just like mine... The one I have is like $80 for a 300-watter on eBay if you search MarsHydro, and cheaper if you get two..comes with two-year warranty as well I believe..just letting you know if you wanted to try it out instead of spending 3 times...
